[WR] 3x3x3 BLD 45.55 single - Haiyan Zhuang


He apparently doesn't use BH.

Seriously?
I've seen a lot of people mention that he uses BH.
At least I wasn't the only person that was wrong.

"I only know 36 algorithms."
I would like to apologize for contributing to the rumor. I tried not to jump to conclusions when it was first being mentioned. I think I became convinced because Yunqi Ouyang mentioned that he uses BH. I am sorry for spreading false information. Haiyan himself said he uses freestyle in one of his posts here; I guess I should have trusted him.

It would be nice if someone (Lucas, hint hint?) would reconstruct some of his solves so we can see how he does it. How similar is his style to Ville's, I wonder?
 

Why don't you just link there directly? Just click the "#54" and you get this:

Though I have no idea what you're trying to say with that.

Erm..:fp link to the wrong post. Should be #55 instead.

I didn't link directly because that's just showing the single post (no previous/after posts)

Basically I'm not surprised with his result after reading that thread last time (or that post specifically) and have been wanting to see him set an official record that is closer to his own PB.

Just thought of posting that link for those who didn't know much about him (and the videos of his practices).

Two separate parts.
First comes astonishment that he finished memo in 13 seconds. Then I noted with slight amusement that, officially, 3x3 BLD is faster than the 4x4 average.
 
He once told me that he only uses xx algorithms, somewhere between TuRBo and BH. But Colloquy logging is stupid, so I can't search (without a lot of effort) for when he told me.

Already planning to, but not right now.

Click the thread link after the single post has loaded.

pjk, if you read this, could you PLEASE change the number on each post to link directly into context, or add a new link next to the number?
I want to be able to link people directly here, not here.
Context rarely hurts, and it's just annoying not to provide it easily.

Good idea. Done.
 
Congrats, Hai!
That would be HaiYan ;)
But his IRC nick is Hai. (Everybody likes saying "hai Hai" to him.)
Oh. I. See. :o :fp to myself :p

I thought I read somewhere that you're fluent in Chinese on top of god knows how many other languages you already know :eek:
wtflol? I only speak Finnish and English.
Lojban, no? I don't remember why, but I had the impression that you were very much into linguistics... :o

Yeah, I'm really into it and have learned some bits from a few languages (including lojban), but I'm nowhere near fluent at anything other than the two yet.
